Roles of RNA and DNA
• DNA is the MASTER PLAN
• RNA is the BLUEPRINT of the
Master Plancopyright cmassengale
4
RNA Differs from DNA
• RNA has a sugar ribose
DNA has a sugar deoxyribose
copyright cmassengale
5
Other Differences
• RNA contains the base uracil (U)DNA has thymine (T)
• RNA molecule is single-strandedDNA is double-stranded

. Three Types of RNA
• Messenger RNA (mRNA) copies DNA’s code & carries the genetic information to the ribosomes
• Ribosomal RNA (rRNA), along with protein, makes up the ribosomes
• Transfer RNA (tRNA) transfers amino acids to the ribosomes where proteins are synthesized

Step 1
TRANSCRIPTION IS HAPPENING AT THE SAME TIME AS DNA
REPLICATION!

12
Transcription - 1
• A portion of the DNA molecule unzips
• Recall: DNA helicase is the enzyme responsible for this!
copyright cmassengale
13
Transcription - 2
• RNA polymerase joins RNA nucleotides using the DNA strand as a template
• This strand of DNA read by the RNA is the “template strand” read in the 3’ to 5’
• This new strand of RNA is the mRNA strand made in the 5’ to 3’ direction
14
15
Transcription - 3
• The mRNA strand is released through nuclear pores (exits the nucleus) and the DNA strand rejoins
16
RNA Polymerase

17
mRNA Processing
• After the DNA is transcribed into RNA, editing must be done to the nucleotide chain to make the RNA functional
• Introns, non-functional segments of DNA are snipped out of the chain
copyright cmassengale
18
mRNA Editing
• Exons, segments of DNA that code for proteins, are then rejoined by the enzyme ligase
• The newly processed mRNA can then leave the nucleus

mRNA Transcript - 4
•mRNA leaves the nucleus through its pores and goes to the ribosomes
copyright cmassengale
21
The Genetic Code
• A codon designates an amino acid
• An amino acid may have more than one codon
• There are 20 amino acids, but 64 possible codons
• Some codons tell the ribosome to stop translating
copyright cmassengale
22
The Genetic Code
•Use the code by reading from the center to the outside•Example: AUG codes for Methionine
copyright cmassengale
23
Name the Amino Acids
• GGG?
• UCA?
• CAU?
• GCA?
• AAA?

Remember the Complementary Bases
On DNA:A-TC-G
On RNA:A-UC-G
copyright cmassengale
25
Question:
What would be the complementary RNA strand for the following DNA sequence?
DNA 5’-GCGTATG-3’
copyright cmassengale
26
Answer:
•DNA 5’-GCGTATG-3’
•RNA 3’-CGCAUAC-5’

27
Translation
• Translation is the process of decoding the mRNA into a polypeptide chain to create proteins
• Ribosomes read mRNA three bases or 1 codon at a time and construct the proteins

29
Ribosomes
• Composed of rRNA (40%)and proteins (60%)
• Have two sites for tRNA attachment --- P and A
copyright cmassengale
30
Step 1- Initiation
• mRNA transcriptstart codon AUGattaches to the small ribosomalsubunit
• Small subunit attaches to large ribosomal subunit

Step 2 - Elongation• As ribosome moves, two tRNA with
their amino acids move into site A and P of the ribosome
• Peptide bonds join the amino acids
